After fighting issues with my web server all day because of some necessary software upgrades, I was pretty grumpy. Sam and Hermenegild encouraged me to go skating with them and the others, and I reluctantly went along.

I had a great time! Once I got the hang of how the skates bit and slid depending on angle it was basically just like rollerblading.

Xiao took a picture of me, but I have an smile in the picture that I don’t really like. Anyway, here’s proof of me on skates:

We stayed for several hours. All of that skating quite wore me out. It’s time for bed.
